4. Carotenoids
It’s carotenoids that give plants their color. There are more than 600 different types of carotenoids, which is why there is such a wide variety of colors in our fruits and vegetables.
Studies show that women who have higher levels of carotenoids in their blood stream have a lower risk of developing breast cancer. Some of the best foods to get your carotenoids from are:
- Tomatoes
- Kale
- Carrots
- Bell Peppers (all colors)
- Spinach
- Papaya (but not from Hawaii, as these are GMO)
- Sweet Potatoes
- Cabbage (all colors)
